520 | 1 | _a"In the past few years, it has become painfully clear that all is not well with the children of middle-class America. Beyond the shootings of Columbine, hardly a day goes by without stories of drug use, binge drinking, destructive violence, and senseless suicides among middle-class adolescents. But the "why" of these tragedies has eluded us." "In this book, acclaimed sociologist and Pulitzer Prize finalist Elliott Currie rejects such predictable answers as TV violence, permissiveness, and inherent evil. Instead, drawing on years of in-depth interviews with troubled adolescents, he links the crisis of today's youth to a pervasive culture of exclusion and neglect that has left young people with diminishing supports or options as they face an ever-more unforgiving adult world." "The Road to Whatever is an investigation of what has gone wrong for so many American teenagers and a stark indictment of a society that has lost the will - or the capacity - to care."--BOOK JACKET. | |
